New location (Denver): K205FV, an EMF translator. Weak and noisy signal aimed more at the west side of Denver. Relays KLDV-HD2 (91.1) with Air1 programming.
Old location (Oakland): K205BM, a K-Love translator, licensed to Oakland. The site is on Grizzly Peak; the antenna is highly directional. It was barely receivable at my location just about five miles away. The translator is aimed squarely at San Francisco.

Nutley, NJ
WSIA Staten Island, NY (college)
WMCX Long Branch, NJ (Monmouth University) If I really try for it. My location favors a lot of the Monmouth County stations, I can even pick up the 100.7 Eatontown translator (nulling out WHUD) and 96.7 Asbury translator (nulling out KLove) from 40 miles away!

Can be KETR Commerce, which is a college station at TAMU Commerce, near Greenville, or KLDN "Red River Radio" from Lufkin. They both struggle to get here, but they try. With that said, KWAA Mart "Air 1" can also blast in to Tyler with a city grade signal when Waco stations get pushed this way.

I am currently getting a Spanish-language pirate on 88.9. The signal is very weak and spotty. I don't know if it's 24/7 or just part-time. No nearby licensed stations, but I have been able to DX on that frequency.
My tropo catches include the following.

In the Wilkes-Barre(Northeast PA) area, it's either the WRGN 88.1 religious translator or WQSU from Susquehanna University in Selinsgrove, depending on location. Usually, when I take the radio outside, I get WQSU with sometimes a decent signal with minimial hiss, this was on a Tecsun. However, indoors, it's the WRGN translator that is mostly received over WQSU, even though the latter has a second best reception in my bedroom in the upper floor.
Last summer, at the huge lake around Rickett's Glen State Park, when I tuned to WQSU on my portable Sparc radio, its HD signal was quickly locked in. This is because the location was over 2,000 feet in elevation.

South Jersey: I can easily pick up WBZC on a good day... it was previously a college station that had a heavy dance rotation. These days, it is a Christian CHR.
Driving towards Atlantic City, I can pick up Atlantic City High School programming from WAJM. The signal isn't much to speak about and is short-spaced by nearby 88.7, but the mix is quite interesting. During school hours, it is programmed by the students with a heavy amount of hip-hop/r&b, with live and recorded interviews in-between. Outside school hours, they'll play local artists, gold r&b, and jazz, with recorded segments

Annular Eclipse Special from Farmington, New Mexico!
A local on 88.9, KNMI. Now a K-Love repeater, it started out around 1980, under the same call letters, as a local contemporary Christian station, owned by Navajo Missions, Inc. I suspect the "NMI" stood for the license name, not "New Mexico [I-Something]". When I last visited Farmington several years ago, it was calling itself "Vertical Radio". It looks like EMF swallowed it up in 2021.

From the southwest suburbs of Chicago ...
It's a station from a few miles away, WARG Summit, owned by Argo High School and operated by the students with 500 watts from a tower about 100 feet up. Used to do live sports and may still. The only other catch on 88.9 is WSND, the Notre Dame, Ind., student-operated station, via trop one night way back.
